Must Be The Shoes: Bulls Bounce Celtics in Double OT

Sure, the heroics of Derrick Rose (23 points 11 rebounds 9 assists) and Ben Gordon (22 points, including game-tying 3-pointer in OT) helped springboard the Chicago Bulls' 121-118 double overtime victory against the Boston Celtics ... but like Spike once said: it must be the shoes.

And while everyone talks about the shorthanded Celtics, it was the very shorthanded Bulls (playing only seven players) that picked up the win to tie the series at 2-2.

The winnable seven-game-series moves back to Boston. If Vinny Del Negro can figure out how to stop Jesus Shuttlesworth in a clutch situation and Tyrus Thomas understands the term "game management" the series would be very winnable.
